    Description

    I live within walking distance to Pezenas a beautiful market town amongst the vineyards I have a large garden that needs getting back into shape & I would like to start a vegetable patch which involves digging a reasonably sized hole filling with wood which I have scattered around the garden & filling with compost etc. including digging up a pipe & repositioning it for future irrigation, there’s trimming, cutting back, planting trees, all sorts to do all quite enjoyable I used to do it all myself but I don’t have the strength anymore. I do have a pool 😅
    Would suit two people.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    It would be great if you speak English as my French is not very good but I use translate which works well & I’m happy to learn more.
    The position would suit people who are spiritual & love nature, familiar with plants & gardening.
    I’m very interested in bio diversity & would like to start right here in my garden protecting the environment.
    I’m very interested in growing plants & herbs for medicinal purposes & have a great knowledge on this subject which I like to share & discuss the benefits.
    People would live as family working in the mornings & relaxing in the afternoon as it can get very hot in the afternoons.
    I enjoy cooking so we can exchange recipes.

    Would suit a strong couple or two males.
    I have a ride on lawnmower with trailer to move trimmings like ivy, oleander hedge round pool, if possible I would hire a digger to dig up a hedge which has died & needs replacing open to any ideas around that one. There’s a shallow ditch that needs clearing of twigs & branches of plane trees to be cut it’s a beautiful space & deserves attention, I enjoy cooking so look forward to relaxing evenings. If you are interested please contact me.
